Capo on 4th fret 
 
C 
The red sun?s going down, I?ll be waiting up again 
F 
Wondering where you are tonight 
                  C 
Out with all your friends 
C 
And I guess that you don?t think about  
 
The home you left behind 
F                           G               C 
But I?d give everything to get you out of my mind 
 
 
C 
You thought a quiet ranch road 
 
Was good enough back then 
   F                                                   C 
But now you need those city lights and bars to go sit in 
C 
And I wonder where the old you goes 
 
When all the bars close down 
F 
?Cause I can just listen to the crickets sing 
   G                      C 
but you need the lights of town 
 
 
F 
the lights of town are blinding you now 
C 
you can?t even see 
G 
that part of you you left behind 
C 
when you walked out on me 
F 
but when those city lights go dim 
C 
and you?re left all alone 
C                       G                 C 
I wonder if you could find your way back home 
 
You forget about the moon in a bar full of neon lights 
You can?t remember holding hands 
On chilly autumn nights 
And though it seems to you 
That the starts have lost their shine 
They?re glowing bright as ever darling 
Past the city limits sign 
 
Chorus 
 
In the middle of the night I sometimes watch the road 
I see the headlights move on past 
And I shiver from the cold 
By now the doors are locked downtown 
And still no sign of you 
The lights of town have broke the heart 
That loved you once so true 
 
Chorus
